Comments about Seattle Sports Kayak Wall Cradles - Pair:

This rack (we bought two) was easy to install and holds our two sea kayaks securely without the need for straps. Because of the J-rack design, the kayaks take up little space in our garage. I did modify this rack by removing about 3 1/2 inches from each bar end to make it easier to load/unload our kayaks. This did not effect the stability of our particular kayaks which are 15 feet, 6 inches in lenght and about 21 inches in width. I also added extra padding to the bars against the wall. For larger kayaks, you would not need to modify these bars at all.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Seattle Sports Kayak Wall Cradles - Pair:

Installation: The idea of J hooks appealed to me because I needed to store my kayaks outside along my garage. I have a 14.5 foot Manitou 2 and a 17 foot sea kayak. I drilled pilot holes for the screws, but as I was installing the mount, the cheap aluminum screw heads began to strip. Three screws stripped completely and had to be removed with channel locks. The screws that did not strip had a nasty burr. One of the burrs left a nasty 1/16-1/8 of an inch scratch along the hull of one of the kayaks. Stability: The kayaks rolled out of the hooks easily, causing a safety hazard for kids and pets. I was able to rectify the problem with some light rope. Value: At [$] a pop, I realize that these hooks are at the lower end of what's out there; however, there isn't a whole lot to these things. They could have made the hooks deeper, and at the very least included STEEL SCREWS.

      Comments about Seattle Sports Kayak Wall Cradles - Pair:

      I'm about to buy my 3rd pair of these. I installed them around the side of my house, where the kayaks are protected by the eves. I then wrap the kayaks in tarps. I would suggest tossing out the screws that come with them and use some #8 three inch deck screws. Also, it wouldn't hurt to wrap the foam padding with mill wrap plastic tape.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
